Dow Jones Description

Gold Star Foods Inc. "Gold Star Foods" began operations in 1966 as a distributor of meat products primarily to coffee shops in the Los Angeles area. "Gold Star Meat Company", a family owned business, was purchased in 1978 and under new ownership the focus of the business shifted from restaurants to Southern California School Districts. To better reflect the image of a changing inventory, the name was changed to "Gold Star Foods" in 1983 and most recently to "Gold Star Foods Inc". Since 1978, Gold Star Foods customer base has grown to over 300 school districts throughout the Southwest. As a result of our commitment to excellence, we have been recognized nationwide by the United States Department of Agriculture and the American School Food Service Association as one of the outstanding food service distributors to school districts. The Gold Star Foods team works hard to ensure your complete satisfaction every time you use our services. Gold Star Foods' outstanding service begins with customer service representatives and purchasing agents who are a cut above in their knowledge and dedication to your needs, and continues with the integrity of the drivers who deliver the orders to your door.
